Led Zep Reissue on vinyl

Imagine how good those 4 systems would have sounded with vinyl front ends.

I have heard HD Audio files. Those have the potential to beat vinyl. If that format survives, I could go there one day. HD Audio, what I heard had the full dimensionality of vinyl and the quiet, perfect presentation of digital. After hearing some HD Audio tracks on a top end system and then going back to CDs, the images felt like flat cardboard figures and the soundstage was smaller.

I find it amazing just how good the sound we can get out of vinyl and how that horse has stayed in the race this long.

How to ID 5 best sounding systems? Was it similar to American Idol auditions by jury or how to nominate?

Guys: don't you think the endless debate over CD v vinyl is not only beside
the point here, but moot, given that with these reissues, you can pick your
format- vinyl, CD, Hi-Rez?
Czarivey- were you actually serious that you thought this newest LZ1
reissue sounded worse than a cassette? Did you buy a copy and listen to it
on your system?
DGarretson- was there a point you were trying to make here, more
generally, about original issue v Classic remaster since in a thread about
Zep reissues, you stated that you don't even like Led Zep and were
referring to another band altogether?

This is true Bill. Hope all is well in TX.

Rockit- back in NY as of a week ago, at least for the summer-fall. Will follow
up with you offline, i would love to hear your system at some point. Best to
all,
